[QUOTE="handyandy, post: 410307, member: 18942"] So I have a 60/40 mercury on my boat I did the jet swap and the jet I found used came with the smaller 6 5/8" impeller that was meant for 50/35 engines. I've been running it the 6 5/8 since I had it and figured I'd run it till it was worn. I called outboard jets today and was ordering up the 6 7/8" liner and told them I was wanting to go with the three blade stainless impeller, but they were telling me that mercury has changed the design of the three blade stainless impellers to better suite the four stroke engines they make now and that they no longer run any better in the two strokes than the aluminum impellers. Told me if I wanted stainless to try and find a old stock stainless one that is better on the two stroke engines. Just hoping to see if anyone has compared a older stainless impeller to one of the new ones or knows if this is true that the impellers have changed before I decide to order one or not. [/QUOTE]
